  • the light sources 11 are arranged behind the mirror glass 1 , 12 in the form of a matrix, i.e., arranged in rows adjacent and underneath one another (rows and columns; see FIG. 4 ). They are advantageously provided over the entire backside of the mirror glass 1 , 12 with the exception of the area of the camera 10 .
  • the arrangement according to FIGS. 4 and 5 is advantageous, in particular, when a conventional (non-electrochromic) mirror glass 12 is used for the interior rearview mirror 16 .
  • the light sources 11 which, in accordance with the preceding embodiments, are infrared sending LEDs, are advantageously positioned on the rim 18 of the mirror housing 17 .
  • the transmission in conjunction with the darkened electrochromic layer can already be so minimal that additional illumination may be required.
  • an infrared illumination is selected that is within a spectral range of the camera sensitivity. Since the losses become too large as a result of double penetration of the reflective layer and the electrochromic layer 3 (FIG.
  • the infrared sending LEDs are advantageously arranged on the rim 18 of the mirror housing 17 .
  • the rim 18 is comprised of plastic material which is transparent for the infrared radiation of the light sources 11 but is opaque with regard to the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum visible to the human eye. This ensures that the driver or the passengers do not see the light sources 11 .
  • the interior rearview mirror 16 is identical to the embodiment according to FIGS. 4 and 5.
  • the camera 10 can be arranged at any suitable location behind the mirror glass 1 , 12 . It is of such a configuration that it covers the required viewing area for the respective application. Since additional devices, such as garage door openers, electrochromic electronic devices, memory drive and others, are often arranged in the interior rearview mirror, the camera 10 is arranged such that the function of these devices is not impaired.
  • an auxiliary lighting unit for additional illumination can be provided external to the interior rearview mirror 16 , depending on the spatial conditions inside the motor vehicle.
  • such an auxiliary lighting unit can be integrated into the interior rear light and/or dome light and/or reading light for the passengers seated in the rear of the automobiles and/or busses. It is also possible to provide the auxiliary lighting unit in the A, B, C, or D columns or any other column within the motor vehicle.
  • an image-transmitting fiber bundle 19 (FIGS. 8 and 9) can be connected to the camera 10 .
  • the optics of these fiber bundles 19 have a diameter down to a magnitude as small as 1 mm.
  • the camera 10 in contrast to the previous embodiments, can be arranged in the mirror housing 17 without having a direct view of the interior of the vehicle.
  • the image is taken by means of the optics 20 on the head of the fiber bundle 19 and guided to the light-sensitive areas of the camera 10 .
  • the optical head 20 is preferably mounted in an opening 21 on the mirror frame or rim 18 .
  • the light sources 11 are provided, as in the embodiment according to FIGS. 6 and 7, on the rim 18 of the mirror housing 17 .
  • the infrared sending LEDs 11 in accordance with the previous embodiments, are distributed uniformly over the entire circumference of the rim 18 of the mirror housing 17 .
  • FIGS. 10 and 11 show an embodiment in which the optical head 20 of the fiber bundle 19 is arranged behind the infrared-transparent mirror glass 1 , 12 . Since the mirror glass 1 , 12 is opaque to the human eye, the camera 10 and the fiber bundle 19 cannot be seen by the passengers. In other respects, the interior rearview mirror 16 is of identical design as the embodiment according to FIGS. 8 and 9.
  • FIGS. 12 and 13 show an interior rearview mirror 16 in which the optical head 20 of the fiber bundle 19 is arranged according to the previous embodiment behind the mirror glass 1 , 12 .
  • the infrared-sending LEDs 11 are arranged behind the mirror glass 1 , 12 in rows and columns, forming a matrix.
  • the light sources 11 are uniformly arranged across the entire backside of the mirror glass 1 , 12 .
  • a lower light level intensifier tube 22 (FIGS. 14 and 15) can be integrated in front of the camera optics.
  • the lower light level intensifier tube 22 forms an image intensifier tube or image converter tube which, even under extremely bad lighting conditions, allows for a reliable monitoring of the interior of the vehicle in the visible and in the near infrared wavelength ranges.
  • the camera 10 is arranged behind the mirror glass 1 , 12 in the mirror housing 17 . Depending on the application, the camera is arranged in the mirror housing 17 such that it covers the required viewing area for the particular application.
  • the backside of the mirror glass 1 , 12 is covered with a black lacquer in the described embodiments.
  • the lacquer is transparent for infrared light of the respective wavelength, but is opaque in the visible wavelength range.
  • the optics are dereflected and mounted from behind as well as from the side in a light-sealing way on the backside of the mirror glass 1 , 12 such that lateral scattered light cannot penetrate through the reflective layer and cannot be seen by the end user, for example, the driver.
  • the camera 10 can be used for a broad range of applications. For example, it can be used for driver identification, for monitoring the driver's condition, for identifying passengers and passenger positions, for airbag control, for theft surveillance, and similar purposes. For example, it is possible to connect the camera 10 with the electrical system of the vehicle so that the vehicle can be started only when the authorized driver is seated behind the steering wheel of the motor vehicle. Moreover, it is possible to trigger a warning signal should the driver fall asleep behind the steering wheel.
